Are they physically attacking you? No? Then you can’t attack them.

Where’s the line? That instance was “funny” and you think it’s great. Cool. What about the blonde girl with a differing opinion at UC Berkley that got pepper sprayed during her interview? Did you laugh at that? Was she the same as Spencer? Some people might be so disconnected with the real world to actually…
The problem here isn’t inciting violence against real actual “classic” Nazis. The problem is that the word nazi, little n, is being expanded to mean almost anything you don’t agree with.
I’d advocate punching a “classic” Nazi all day long.
But claiming something is like a nazi to justify violence is obviously a bad…
Buuuuuuut free speech does mean you can say what you want and if the consequence is you punching someone in the face because you don’t like it then you are attempting to silence that speech. Your way of thinking is part of a HUGE problem right now. The words that come out of someone’s mouth never constitutes…
Intellectually lazy. What effort was made to reason with him? Further, what threat did he represent if he wasn’t assaulted. This is rationalization after the fact.
OK, so it should be easy to debate, right?
I’d rather normalize hate speech than assault.
I question your premise. Why shouldn’t we reason with them?
Violence should not be accepted as a consequence of discourse any more than losing your job should be a consequence of having a Bernie Sanders bumper sticker. In both cases it is completely unreasonable and violates common standards of proportionate retribution.
Im not protesting against the video game’s existence. I’m merely commenting on how so many individuals with a progressive mindset appear to be ok with inciting violence against their opponents.
I’m certain that the normalization of violence as a tool of political discourse will have absolutely no adverse consequences.
Game looks funny, but the left’s normalization of violence against their political opposition scares me.
A troll these days is someone who doesn’t agree with you I guess.
I’m sorry... I’m sorry. I know I’m using your fear and anger to amuse myself while trying to make my point.. I’m not proud of it and I apologize. The high road may not come in line with what ever Les Miserable situation you got cooked up in your head, but its made ME feel better about myself.
There is that righteous indignation!!! Good thing morality is on your side right? And good thing there aren’t any shades of grey on the topics. And its just a miracle that we live in Candy Happy Land.
Yes. The immigration ban is terrible and people will suffer. Yes the health care reforms coming can be seen as…
Dude, don’t make a morally gray issue black and white, also stop feeding the troll if you think he is one.
oorrrrr maybe i’m a moderate that is sick and tired of all the side taking. And im outraged at BOTH sides just as much are you are against one. But you’re a gawkerlite, too far gone. If you want to take some more shots at me to pump up your self serving feelings of moral soundness, I can take them. As evidenced by…
Dangit..... Shoot.....You mean I won’t get to leave my job in the actual industry? The one that hires me based on my portfolio?
Which is in itself kinda broken since there aren’t that many minorities capable or interested in the education. I try my best to reach out to them to come sign up for my program, but it…
Did you just assume my political beliefs? For shame Mr. Left Wing.
Make sure you agree with them politically first before you apply otherwise you’re going to waste an email. Gawker likes its echo chambers. Bonus if you can tick off a missing check box of diversity. I think helicopters are still up for the taking.
And of course everyone will jump down my throat cause no one can…
